1-3: Either Physogaleus contortus or a Galeocerdo (I know there have been some discussions about this, so I am unsure now).  8 I would say is Galeocerdo.

 

6 (and maybe some others): Carcharodon hastalis

My favorite things about fossil hunting: getting out of my own head, getting into nature and, if I’m lucky, finding some cool souvenirs.

Bulldozers and dirt Bulldozers and dirt
behind the trailer, my desert
Them red clay piles are heaven on earth
I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt

Isurus oxyrinchus (desori) is a possibility for both, but see what Sixgill Pete says.  I'm not comfortable making an ID on the one on the right since so much of the root is missing.
